Arcade Fire Will Match Your Holiday Donations to Haiti Charity Kanpe

Arcade Fire have a holiday gift-giving proposal for ya: Make a donation to the non-profit Kanpe, which aids in the rebuilding of Haiti, and the band will match your donation. Arcade Fire co-leader Régine Chassagne sits on the Board of Directors for the organization. The band pledged big money to the Kanpe last year, too.

In a note on the band's site, Win Butler said that he and Régine will send a signed postcard to thank each person who gives. They'll match donations up to $300,000. Here's the full message:

Hi Guys,This is Win from Arcade Fire. If you are having a hard time deciding what to get your friends and family for gifts this year, give them our money! For any donation you make to Kanpe this holiday season, the band will match it. We will also send a nifty little post card, signed by Regine and I, to put under the tree, or wherever you put your gifts (it’s not our business). For any silicone valley jerks who might try to bankrupt us, lets put the upper limit at 300,000$… Have a great HolidaysLuv, Win
